Adchem Unveils 488M RED 8-mil Tape
Riverhead, NY (PRWEB) March 05, 2014 -- Adchem Corporation has engineered a high caliper acrylic adhesive double-sided PET tape. The 3.5 mils per side acrylic tape is manufactured in the U.S. on a red polypropylene release liner used in bonding wood, EPDM and rubber extrusions, LSE plastics and finishes, as well as, many species of wood materials. "RED" as the product is known in the tape converting industry has hundreds of applications in automotive, furniture manufacturing, electronics, and transportation markets.
Engineered specifically for high immediate bond strength and durable-long lasting bonding applications, 488M is the choice when high tack, higher temperatures and high shear properties are needed. The converter friendly RED liner allows for precise die-cutting and slitting. The two-sided, high tack, high shear PSA is 8.0 mils total thickness and utilizes an aggressive acrylic adhesive system on a 1 mil PET film carrier.
The newly released product demonstrates exceptional bond to EPDM’s and low surface energy substrates such as TPO’s, polypropylene, polyethylene, as well as powder-coated paint surfaces, ABS, wood and rubber components.
